À propos de cet audio

It's 2027. The AI revolution has merged with quantum computing to take control of global financial markets. Operated by the mysterious Bank for International Settlements based in Basel, Switzerland, the quantum supercomputer known as ICARUS has promised the world a more stable economy, devoid of bank failures and volatile share prices. And it has delivered . . . until now.

Rory O'Connor is the financial genius who helped create ICARUS, but after the tragic death of his best friend, he's checked out of high finance and into a luxury Caribbean condo, trading cryptocurrencies on the shores of San Juan.

When the stock market starts manifesting erratic behavior, what begins as a favor drags Rory into a dangerous labyrinth of deceit and international intrigue. Leaders at some of the world's most powerful central banks are planning to take down the US dollar as global reserve currency, replacing it with a gold- and silver-backed digital currency of their own.

Now, Rory must travel to Switzerland, overcome his demons, and save the world from financial chaos. Everything is on the line. If he fails, humanity descends into an economic Armageddon controlled by madmen and psychopathic bankers.

I loved the idea of the finance element to the story, but it mainly is just a people being chased by bad guys story. The characters are rather shallow and not exactly likeable. If it wasn't for learning some things about finance, the BIS and a few other interesting details from the story, I would rate it lower.

Good-ish but not great
